August 12th > August 16th Freebie Claims

About 2 - 2.5 hours remaining before Mondays Unlock becomes available (though it's currently 3:45pm here, so it seems as though Monday is nearly up already) :P though I'd like to try and clarify just how these claims are going to work.

I did post this within the official thread, but Branflakes couldn't/didn't respond, and most other posters there are either too busy complaining about what they might miss out on, or they're thanking Cryptic for the offers.

Anyway, the claims. They're labelled as account unlocks, but are they going to actually be account unlocks? We know that Uniforms are purchasable across the board (correct me if mistaken) so it doesn't matter what level you'd need to be, but lets use a T5 ship as an example.

If I have a character at level #50 and make the T5 ship claim, I cannot make that claim on another level #30 character. However, if that claim is unlocked for the level #50 character, will it still be open to claim by the other character when they reach level #50. it's already been claimed by one character, and it's an account wide unlock, thus it should remain available indefinitely.

Would I be right in this belief?

    You're just using th C store, so just like when we got our Free TOS connie, and that other KDF ship I forgot the name with the bio warhead, it will unlock on your account as if you purchased with Zen, except it will cost 0 Zen.

    So if you claim it with a 50 character your lower character will get it and then claim it when he gets to 50.

    From what I can gather is that they will be account unlocks they jusy will be listed as free. i.e you get a Tier 5 Armitage. then you create another Fed. Take him to Lvl 50 you should be then able to claim that same ship under that character as well.

    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    Zzzzzzzzzz, giving away c-store junk. Gotcha. I doubt I'll be able to login after the last 8 weeks of patching finishes eating my game, if it's able to launch at all.

    BranFlakes has already posted that the total value of the 5-days of stuff is around 7,500 Zen. And they have given away T5 ships before, such as the Odyssey/Bortasqu'.

    The epitome of willful ignorance even when the opposite is so readily available.
